[For Day Service Centers] February Craft Ideas: Decorations for Setsubun, Valentine’s Day, and the Feeling of Spring

Camellia decoration made with origami

Camellia flower made from origami: January/February decoration (with audio commentary) — How to make a paper camellia flower decoration <ORIGAMI>

Camellia flowers that evoke the arrival of spring are a perfect motif for a February wall display.

Cut two sheets of origami paper into circles, fold them in half, then fold into thirds.

Trim both corners with scissors to suggest petals.

Make a slit in the center, layer the two pieces so you end up with five petals, and glue them together to create a three-dimensional plum blossom shape.

Make another flower the same way, then attach the two so the petals alternate.

Create the flower’s center from yellow origami paper and attach it to complete the camellia.

In addition to the camellias, make paper fans and leaves, and secure them to a string.

If you attach them to a tree branch as shown in the video, they become an even lovelier hanging decoration.

Torn Ehomaki Demon

@hekimen_25

[Torn-Paper Ehomaki Oni 👹]- For: Middle preschoolers and up- Goals: • Strengthen fine motor skills through tearing construction paper • Foster interest in and awareness of SetsubunNursery teacher / Childcare worker#Nursery school#Kindergarten#Childcare CraftingProduction process#Production Video#Chigiri-e　Setsubun　Setsubun craft　Demon

♬ Eu Sento Gabu! – PXLWYSE

Speaking of ehomaki, the classic look is the black color of seaweed, but in this idea, we’ll make an ehomaki with a tiger pattern.

First, cut yellow construction paper into the shape of an ehomaki, then glue on thin, torn strips of paper to create the tiger stripes.

Attach a paper-made ogre (oni) face to the top of the ehomaki, and glue hand pieces on the front so it looks like the ogre is holding it.

Make the ogre’s mouth wide open, and use sparkly stickers for the pupils to better convey how delicious the ehomaki is.

Oni made with crumpled tissue paper

@fukushidan1979

Today’s post is from Izuhara! Tomorrow is Setsubun Day ☺️ We made some cute oni (little demons) together with our users 😍✨ There are lots of smiles, so please take a look 🫰✨NagasakiTranslationRemote island#Special Nursing HomeCaregiverCaregivingSetsubunDemonRecommendation#fyp#fypシ

Let’s all work together to roll up tissue paper and make an ogre wall decoration! The method is super simple: just roll and stick.

Prepare lots of rolled tissue paper pieces, draw the ogre’s face, and stick the pieces onto a backing sheet with double-sided tape.

The colors differ by part—eyes, horns, hair, cheeks—so adjust how many pieces you roll to match each area.

Adding words like “Oni wa soto, fuku wa uchi” will make it feel even more like a Setsubun decoration.

In the cold of winter, let’s warm our hearts with shared laughter as we create together!

Handmade Oni hat

@tomo_mama_

[Too easy 👹] I made it with things I mostly had at home 💖SetsubunOni of Setsubun#Setsubun DayBean-throwing (Setsubun)#Oni cosplay#Oni Hat#ParentingMomMom of a 2-year-old#HandmadeAccessoriesHandmade

Let’s try making a handmade ogre (oni) hat! The main material is yarn.

Choose yarn in your favorite color and wrap it around a piece of cardboard over and over.

Once it’s thick enough, slide it off the cardboard, tie it in the middle, and round it out to form the hair section.

Next, draw patterns on construction paper, roll it into cone-shaped horn pieces, and glue them onto the yarn.

Finally, attach everything to the hat base made from cardboard and elastic, and you’re done! It’ll turn out so cute that you’ll be counting down the days to Setsubun.

When you do mamemaki (bean throwing), it’s handy to have a container for the beans, right? In that case, let’s make one by hand from a milk carton! Cut the carton to the depth you want, leaving one side longer to use as a lid.

After covering the outside with origami paper, punch two holes on the sides for a string, and attach Velcro to the front side and the lid.

Thread a strap so you can hang it around your neck, then draw an ogre’s face or add horn and hair pieces, and you’re done.

Fill it with beans and enjoy Setsubun!

tiger-pattern wreath

Here’s a handmade idea for a tiger-pattern wreath using a paper plate.

Cut out the inner circle of the paper plate to make a ring, then paint it yellow.

Once the paint dries, tear black construction paper into thin strips and glue them on to create a tiger pattern.

Next, decorate the plate with paper cutouts of an oni (ogre), a smiling Otafuku face, and a bean-filled masu box.

Hang a holly-and-sardine talisman in the center using a pipe cleaner, and you’re done.

Write any message you like on the talisman.

The oni’s pants can be any color, so use your favorite!

Demon Balance Game

@chooobo2

Balance game 👹 This material will be distributed via an Instagram subscription ✨ You can also play by stacking plastic bottle caps or sponges 🌼Made in FebruarySetsubun craftSetsubun#HandmadeToyspaper plate#AtHomePlayPaper Plate Craft

Oria – niKu

Let’s try playing a Setsubun balance game where you place little ogres (oni) on a base made from a paper plate.

The base is shaped like a semicircle, so each time you add an oni it wobbles, keeping players on edge.

Players take turns placing oni, and whoever causes the balance to tip and makes the oni fall loses.

This game is easy to make with just a paper plate and a single sheet of paper printed with oni illustrations.

Fold the paper plate in half, then add parallel creases to the left and right of the center fold to fix it into a semicircle.

For the oni, print the illustrations on paper, cut them into strips, and fold them into rectangular shapes.
